When I visit my brother in Greenville, TX, we always hit the downtown antique malls like Better Days Antiques and Four Generations Mini Mall. We always find great antiques like chemistry sets and Pachinko machines.

In 2007, I fell in love with this vintage record cabinet, particularly how the turntable flips down. If I had to guess I'd say this is from the late '50s or early '60s? Correct me if I'm wrong. I like how you can keep your favorite records beside the player and the other underneath.

Sadly, this cabinet did not come home with me. It was cheap (less than $100), but I couldn't figure a practical way to get to California, and I was legitimately concerned I would have to move to a smaller place. It has long since been purchased by some other lucky vinyl lover.

kfranks, 5 years agoWhat a great cabinet! It looks to be in really great shape too. Shame you couldn't take it home :(

metalorchid, 5 years agoSo beautiful! That's the drawback to finding great bargains while on vacation. Most places outside of the major areas like SF/Bay Area, LA or NYC are far less expensive for antiques, but then you have to figure out how to get it home.

lisa, 5 years agoI know, right? I guess I could make my brother keep things in his garage, heh!

pApApiLL, 1 year agoI have this exact same unit in pristine condition in my house. I have been thinking of selling it. If anyone is interested you can email me at stevenlandos@hotmail.com or call me at 6027412625
